- Abstract
The main objective of this study was to evaluate embedding strength on Uruguayan wood to apply the European yield theory (EYT) for double shear bolted joints' on Eucalyptus grandis H.(EGH). To introduce the dowel-type connection performance, double shear tests were conducted. The embedding tests were conducted to calculate the yield strength of bolted joint by EYT and the compression test, to estimate the embedding strength. The yield strength obtained from the experiments showed a good agreement with the yield strength calculated by EYT method. The yield strength of double shear bolted joint evaluated from compressive strengths is a very close to the yield strength calculated by EYT. The average value and variability of the yield strength of double shear bolted joint calculated by EYT applying the embedding strengths of experimental results were very close to the yield strength or 5 % offset method of experimental results. The results from this study showed a good behavior to structural design with EGH in accordance to the Japanese standard code.
